Southeastern Drone Solutions is owned and operated by Jason Wisniewski of Piedmont, Alabama. Jason has served as a wildlife biologist for 20 years specializing in aquatic conservation and wildlife population monitoring for several state agencies. As a wildlife biologist, Jason utilized Geographic Information Systems (GIS) frequently to view habitat and landscape conditions as well as plot field survey data to visualize the distribution and abundance of various species. Although aerial imagery was available for use in GIS, most of this imagery was several months to several years old and generally at a lower resolution than desired for most of his projects. He desired to have more up-to-date and higher resolution imagery but access to such data was difficult as it was costly and required specialized equipment.

After seeing his brother-in-law flying a drone over the family farm in early 2018, Jason immediately recognized that small unmanned aircraft (sUAS) aka drones were a cost-efficient solution to generating high resolution and nearly real-time imagery with endless possibilities. Jason earned his FAA Part 107 Remote Pilot Certificate in May 2018 and has provided professional aerial photography and videography content for a variety of purposes including construction site planning and monitoring, generating high resolution imagery for field mapping and monitoring, generating 3-dimensional models of vertical infrastructure, wildlife population monitoring, and wildlife recovery. Jason has invested his time to learn and apply photogrammetry which compliments his GIS background well. In addition, he has most recently become familiar with thermography and video editing to expand his skillset to providing more services as needed.

Jason established Southeastern Drone Solutions in 2024 to provide his experience and expertise to others needing high quality aerial imagery and videography at an affordable cost. Southeastern Drone Solutions is based in northeast Alabama, serving Cherokee, Calhoun, Cleburne, DeKalb, Etowah, Jefferson, St. Clair, Talladega, and surrounding counties as well as Polk, Floyd, Harralson, Paulding, and surrounding counties in northwest Georgia.
